Maintainers can help that by making sure that src_test is not wasting useless time running non-tests, false positives, or code deemed to failure. Also, make sure that packages do not collide/block just for the sake of doing so. If they provide binaries with the same name and functionality, consider making them eselectable, or rename one of them.. if they have the same name and do different stuff, get one (or both) upstream to understand that the name is too generic, or already taken, and rename the file once and for all.
